Come forth! Shout, all ye people by Denis Mason — Lyrics
About Come forth! Shout, all ye people
Come forth! Shout, all ye people is a powerful anthem of praise and jubilation, celebrating the resurrection of Christ. The text urges all people to cast aside doubt and gloom, raising their voices in joyous celebration. It vividly portrays the despair felt during the three days Christ was thought lost, contrasting it with the triumphant relief of his return from the dead. The music calls for a full SATB choir, with the English text conveying a profound message of hope and victory over death. The recurring Alleluias emphasize the ecstatic nature of this Easter declaration, making it a stirring piece for any sacred occasion.
